Philosophy Ramblings

Ok. This is truly bizarre. I have no idea why I wrote it, what its for, or really how long I have had it. But as I so rarely write about philosophical things I thought I would post it for amusement of others, or bemusement as the case may be.....

Imagine a moving swirling energy blob. Something like a water balloon. If one side gets pushed in the other side stretches out and the water will adjust to sit level. Water compensates to its container.

Ever seen that add were someone does something stupid on one side of the world so on the other side a smart person gets insurance or something to balance it out. One thing goes on one side of the world and on the other side an opposite reaction so the energy (water in the balloon) cal balance and level out.

Imagine that there is a super mathematical pattern where if everything was doing a precise thing at a precise time and place the world could be at a balance. If for every good deed there was a bad one, for every person sleeping there was one waking up. A split second in time were if all the numbers/ pieces of the puzzle were in the equation in their rightful places the world would balance out.

Have you ever tried that game where a group of people stand in a circle and all carefully and slowly sit aiming for the lap of the person behind them. Even if you have a huge fat man in front of a smallish girl if the trick is done right the weight evens out almost instantaneously so you can all rest in a state of balance.

Could this be done with the world?

Is there any one thing that every thing is comprised of? Atoms? Or Energy? Is it possible that there is something else we all share that could be our connection to the energy blob?


Imagine if that’s our connection to the balance. If I am sleeping and dreaming of pleasant things I could be spiritually charged positive to allow a connection with a greater amount of energy, and if somewhere else a person was awake and living in a nightmare they could be negatively charged expelling energy only maintaining the bare minimum to have motor functions. But what if while I was sleeping I was missing the alarm causing a negative effect, while a third person just completed an application for social work and may be someday the person who will help another out of their living nightmare? It could all balance.

Time could be an issue, with things constantly changing one minute I could have tons of energy the next I could wake up realising that I’ve slept through the 1st hour of work and it could all fluctuate. If you are gently wobbling a water balloon from one hand to the next, or letting it rest on a table and poking it in different places will there ever be a point in the constant movement of the water when it balances out?
Maybe time could freeze, or the world would stop if this balance ever happened. Maybe its perpetual changing is the process to find a balance, the reason for continuing.


If a simultaneous balance could not be found could you say that over a period of 10 years every person/ living thing/ or even every single thing living or not would have had an equal amount of energy pass through them/ it. That the good and the bad in the world would actually balance out for every thing in a certain period of time if not all at the same time?

Maybe we are already here. How would we know? What if the world has been fluctuating through balance and each person’s life evens out with another all along?

It is a theory that is not uncommon to man… What goes around comes around… Karma… Yin/Yang


Trouble is:

In order to have a balance one needs a defined weight? Take scales for example an exact equal weight has to be on each side and that weight is measurable. Who decides that weight? Is there a higher power? Is it just balance itself? Is there a living thing in the energy/water balloon? Does it work to balance itself? Could we force it out of balance either accidentally or wilfully by going against our design or our ‘meant to be’? (By intentionally misplacing a piece of the equation?) Is there a large force that would correct the imbalance some where later in life? Ex: a big buss could run a murderer over?

Can every thing have a balance? Or an opposite reaction?

I think you should consider going to Tibet... or maybe Thailand - although you may not like the food. You have very Buddhist leanings here and a trip to a place where this way of life is at the very core might be an interesting experience for you....

Then again, maybe NY is that place for you (in a very different sort of way).
